Our Agents

Pender Blake Group is committed to making a difference in real estate. They are referral based agents and do not market to the general public like most Realtors. This means they rely on their clients to refer them to others. Referrals are the biggest thank you they feel their clients can give them. This belief has translated into a very successful team who truly cares about their client’s goals and dreams. They are devoted to providing outstanding customer service, communication, and integrity. This commitment has resulted in satisfied clients and proven results. Pender Blake Group has received numerous honors and are consistent top producers. In 2016 they were listed as one of the Top 500 Teams for REMAX in the state of Texas, top 18 for Tarrant County, and one of the top three teams for their office. As a team they specialize in mid size to luxury homes and investment properties.
